[edit] Research questions
- Impact on Teaching and Learning
What impact, if any, has deploying Raspberry Pi and TP-Link MR3020 in these settings had on students and faculty sharing educational materials?
If there are significant increases in sharing educational materials, what does this mean for academic and professional development in the short and long term in the countries affected?
In which contexts are people gaining the most and the least from which device? Why?
- Technological Design
What is the range of the wireless signal of each device in different environments (e.g. cement vs. brick walls)?
How many concurrent users can each device support?
Does that vary by type of activity (e.g. streaming video, text-based PDFs)?
How does the power consumption vary by type of data storage (SD card vs. USB drive)? - How do Raspberry Pi, Raspberry Pi 2, and Banana Pi compare in terms of performance?
- In order to better understand if, how, and for what purposes the devices are being used, we added a short six-question survey to each configuration. It consists of two Likert scales and four free-form text questions. There is one set of questions for learners and educators and another for technology and library support staff.
